Discovering Unspoken Thoughts.

He who can discern another's unspoken thoughts by merely looking 
is an emerald on an Earth encircled by equable seas.

Regard as god-like those who can divine 
without hesitation what is in the minds of others.

Give whatever is required to gain an advisor 
who, knowing his own mind, can read another's intentions.

Those who grasp others' unspoken thoughts have the same 
physical features as most folks--yet how different they are.

Of what benefit are eyes in a body, if they cannot 
by their observing powers perceive another's intentions?

As a crystal mirror reflects objects that are nearby, 
so the face reflects what is foremost in the heart.

What is more forthrightly profound than the face? 
For whether the heart is angry or glad, the face expresses it first.

If you find a man who understands matters by looking into 
the mind, it suffices to stand silently looking into his face.

If you find men who know the eye's language 
the eyes will speak to them of hidden hate and love.

Observe those who are said to see subtly with their mind's eye-- 
their singular measuring rod is their eyes
